Ovarian cyst

About two weeks ago, I went to the ER with severe right side pain. I thought I had appendicitis. What I had was a possible right ovarian cyst erupt. I ended up getting a ct scan done and they found a cyst on my left ovary. Last Saturday, I went to have an ultrasound to find out what was going on with it. The tech told me it was 3.6 cm big. And everyone I have talked to about this told me I will most likely have a hysterectomy done. My question is has anyone else had anything like this? And what did they do to fix it if it didn't go away on it's own?

I've had them off and on for 13 years. The treatment is to go on birth control pills so you don't ovulate. Also, losing weight can help - there is a big connection with polycystic ovary syndrome. I lost 40 pounds about 8 years ago and it made a huge difference!Karen
